Objective: Developing a rapid and sensitive analytical method based on ultrafast liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UFLC-MS/MS) with solid-phase extraction (SPE) for the simultaneous determination of nine estrogens (dienestrol, diethylstilbestrol, estrone, hexestrol, 17-alpha-estradiol, 17-beta-estradiol, estriol, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol and estradiol valerate) in eel., Methods: After the sample was extracted by acetonitrile and cleaned by Waters Oasis HLB solid-phase extraction cartridge, the UFLC separation was performed on a Shim-pack XR-ODS II column (100 mm x 2.0 mm, 2.2 microm) with a linear gradient elution program of methanol solution containing 0.04% ammonia (v/v) and 0.04% ammonia aqueous solution (v/v) as the mobile phase. Electrospray ionization was applied and operated in the negative multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The quantitation was used by isotope internal standard dilution technique., Results: The results showed that the limits of quantitation (LOQs, S/N(10) were in the range of 0.07-0.4 microg/kg, the calibration curves were in good linearities for the nine analytes in the range of 0.5-50.0 microg/L with the correlative coefficients (r2) more than 0.998, the recoveries were between 81.0% and 110.0% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 1.92%-8.24%. Additional, the mass spectra characterization of the nine estrogens was discussed and the fragmentation pathways were speculated., Conclusion: The developed method is rapid, sensitive, specific and reproducible, and adapts not only to the simultaneous determination of the nine trace estrogens including the epimer of 17-alpha-estradiol and 17-beta-estradiol but also to the identified detection in other fish tissues.
